Re: Another problem

In Response To: Another problem (gspawn)

: One of those nice, quick problems that shoot down a "Most Conclusive
: Theory EVER"

: The Spartan program went public to enhance UNSC morale, and all of the Halo/2
: game storyline that we know so far takes place in a very short timeframe
: (same year, right?)- IE, if the clones are going to matter (having clones
: that are useless to the storyline isn't much different from them not being
: there at all), they'd have to already be operational.

: If the clones are already operational, and the Spartan program went public a
: while ago, and the Covenant were so obviously closing in on Earth...

: I'm going to take a guess and say that if humanity had ANY weapon with which
: to fight the Covenant, it would have already gone public before Halo 2, in
: which case the new Spartans would factor in heavily.

Who's to say that the Spartan clones aren't in operation. The map clearly states that there is a complex for training cloned Spartans, and there are many ways to explain how this could be possible.

: More problems: Halo is essentially the story of one man- Master Chief- and
: his fight for the redemption of mankind. [Bungie maintained MC was the
: last Spartan throughout Halo- check the about page on Bungie.net's Halo PC
: "Master Chief, the last surviving Spartan" or Xbox "last of
: your kind"].

: Surviving Spartans would disrupt what is essentially the premise of the whole
: series.

I would say that the Halo story isn't this one dimensional. Of course, the MC is the Hero of the story, but that doesn't mean that there can't be others by his side. When there are many Spartans mentioned in the books, the MC still comes off as the one in which everyone, including all the Spartans II's, depends on for survival.
